- 1 TBS vegetable oil
- 1 cup of soy sauce
- 1/2 cup mirin
- 1/2 cup dark brown sugar
- 1/4 cup sesame oil
- 6 cloves of garlic
- 6 scallions
- 2 tsp. fresh ginger, peeled and grated
- 1 Fuji apple, chopped
- 1 pork tenderloin, 2 lbs.
- 1 pineapple, roughly chopped
- 2 TBS cilantro, finely chopped
- 1 cup of mayonnaise
- 1/2 cup of your favorite hot sauce
- 12 to 15 6-inch tortilla, any flavor you prefer
To make marinade: In a large bowl, combine soy sauce, mirin, dark brown sugar, sesame oil, garlic cloves, scallions, ginger, apple and set aside.
Place the pork tenderloin on a cutting board and cover with plastic wrap. Using a metal mallet, pound the tenderloin until it is about ¼ inch thick. Once you are done, place in marinade and refrigerate for 24 hours.
Next day: Heat oil in a sauté pan to a medium-high heat. Place pork in pan and heat on each side for about 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from pan and cut into small cubes. Return cut pork to pan, add the remaining marinade and cook on high heat for about 8-10 minutes, or until marinade reduces by half. Set aside. Then, in a bowl, mix together the pineapple and cilantro. Set aside.
To assemble: Place pork mixture in center of tortilla, top with pineapple and garnish with spicy mayo to taste.
